Hi Jes,
 yes, hot replace support is something I should have mentioned but didn't

   mdadm /dev/md0 --replace /dev/foo

 will try to replace /dev/foo with a spare.

   mdadm /dev/md0 --replace /dev/foo --with /dev/bar

 will try to replace it with the spare "/dev/bar".

 Testing of that would be good too.
 I'll be sure to mention that in the 3.3 announcement.  Thanks.
